RFK Jr. Fact Checks Democratic Governor Who Claimed ‘There Is No Fetal Tissue’ in MMR Vaccine

Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. fact-checked Pennsylvania Democratic Gov. Josh Shapiro after he claimed that there is “no fetal tissue” in the measles, mumps, and rubella vaccine, known as MMR.

During a Tuesday news conference, Shapiro accused Kennedy of spreading vaccine misinformation and tied it to the deaths of two people in Lancaster County, which he said were “measles-associated,” a claim county officials have since disputed.

In a phone call with Kennedy, the governor recounted, “I was very, very blunt with him and I made very clear that his actions and the rhetoric that’s coming from this administration are having a negative impact on communities across America, particularly right here in Pennsylvania.”

“There’s real life consequences to spreading misinformation. There are real-life consequences to scaring people and not relying on actual doctors and actual medical professionals to provide unbiased information to parents so that we can make reasonable decisions for our kids,” he added.

“Sharing conspiracy theories and misinformation does not help the cause of public health,” Shapiro said.

Kennedy responded with a post on X, writing, “At his press conference today, Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro accused me of promoting conspiracy theories because I told him, during an earlier telephone conversation, that some Americans had religious objections to the MMR vaccine because it contained fetal tissue. ‘There is no fetal tissue in the MMR,’ he told me.”

The post included video testimony from Dr. Stanley Plotkin, who developed the rubella component of the MMR vaccine, according to the Smithsonian.

“Plotkin admits to butchering 76 aborted normally developing fetuses, all over three months old, in just one of the many studies that led to the development of his vaccine,” RFK Jr. wrote.

“The rubella virus used in MMR-II is grown on the cultured cell line composed of lung tissue from an aborted three-month-old female embryo and listed as ‘WI-38 human diploid lung fibroblasts’ in the ingredients of MMR-II as portions of these cells end up in each vial of MMR II,” Kennedy added.

North Dakota Mother Accused of Slitting Throats of Her Three Children After Telling Father, “Say Goodbye to Your Kids”

by Jim Hᴏft Aug. 28, 2026 2:00 pm

A 22-year-old Mandan, North Dakota mother is behind bars after police say she used a kitchen knife to cut the throats of her three young children on August 6. Two are dead. One survived. She told their father to “say goodbye to your kids” on video while holding a pistol at her hip.

Kailey Renae Erhart, 22, faces two counts of murder, attempted murder, aggravated assault, terrorizing, and domestic violence. Bond was set at $3 million cash. A judge cited the “extreme violence” and threat to the community, according to Law and Crime.

Her five-month-old and three-year-old children died from their injuries. Her one-year-old son survived after undergoing extensive surgery and is expected to make a full physical recovery.

The case bears chilling similarities to the nationally watched Lindsay Clancy case, though authorities have presented no evidence that Erhart copied or was inspired by Clancy.

According to a police affidavit obtained by Valley News Live, officers were dispatched to a home on South Frontier Trail after receiving a report that a mother had stabbed her children.

When officers entered the blood-soaked home, they reportedly discovered Erhart holding a kitchen knife against her own throat.

Erhart, who was allegedly covered in blood, dropped the weapon and told police officers to kill her.

Officers followed a trail of blood into a bedroom, where they found all three children lying motionless on a bed with horrific injuries concentrated around their necks.

The five-month-old was pronounced dead at St. Alexius Medical Center that evening. The three-year-old died at Sanford Health early the following morning.

The one-year-old miraculously survived.

The child’s family later announced that his surgery was successful and doctors expected him to make a full physical recovery.

“Last night, he finally smiled at us, and it was the most beautiful thing we’ve ever seen,” the family wrote in an update reported by Gray News.

But the allegations describing what occurred before the children were attacked are even more disturbing.

Investigators reportedly recovered a video from the father’s phone showing Erhart carrying one of the children while holding a pistol against her hip.

“Say goodbye to your kids,” Erhart allegedly told the father.
